ABOUT BIRDLAND:
Since 1948 Birdland has provided New York City with the best in jazz entertainment. With a few location changes and some time off now and then, due to different circumstances, Birdland is still going strong, stronger than ever, in fact, with the Birdland Main Room and the Birdland Theater presenting more than jazz now. Thanks to two different variety shows a week, Jim Caruso's Cast Party and The Lineup with Susie Mosher, as well as the Broadway At Birdland Series, more and more Broadway stars, comics, drag acts, dance shows, and unique acts like Gunhild Carling and Jason Kravits Off The Top! are enoying sold out houses in the 44th Street location.
